Friday Giveaway: 2 Adonit Jot Touch Pressure Sensitive Styli

The role of the tablet has transformed from being just a reading device to one that allows you to use it creatively. Many a designers now rely on the iPad to do random sketches, pursue inspiration and follow their thoughts. To compliment their intuitiveness we have Adonit striving hard to empower them with the right tools. This Friday stand a chance to win two Adonit Jot Touch Pressure Sensitive Styli. To Win Adonit the Jot Touch Answer This Question:

Jot Touch has the distinction of being the first pressure sensitive stylus for the iPad. Adonit’s goal was to give artists more than the expected precision from a Jot stylus, but also the freedom to create everywhere with powerful tools. Using Bluetooth, Jot Touch also provides the user with shortcut buttons for quick changes such as “undo” or brush switching. Partnered with Jot Ready Apps, Jot Touch is the most powerful iPad stylus around.

Jot would certainly aid in reducing wrist fatigue and give my stiff fingers a break. It’d be nice to have sure-fire precision always at hand when navigating drawing & photo apps as well as poking around fun design websites like Yanko. Thanks for the contest!

How wouldn’t it. Not only would it be great to take notes, draw, play games and make things like typing faster. It would also help in video editing and GarageBand. But like most things on the iPad there are probably a ton of things that I havn’t even thought about.

I’ve been following Yanko Design for nearly two years now. Unfortunately, I have never won anything yet 🙁 and I would be extremely grateful if I could win this Jot Touch for my iPad 🙂 and congratulations to the person who does win it!

I’m an artist and grad student. I do a fair amount of drawing on my iPad. I’d love to see what the difference in a sensitive drawing utensil would make when I do my sketches on it. I’d like to see if my gestural drawing style would become even more intuitive and it’d bring more nuances out in my drawings. Plus it’s just cool technology to work with.

The intuitive nature of the touch screen is just screaming to incorporate pressure sensitivity into the mix for a truely personal and organic experience. The nuance this would allow for woudl make my comp sketches and initial mechanical drawings even better.

It will help me in taking notes for meetings and being truly wireless with my work. Typing on an iPad is distracting for those in a meeting…it’ll be nice to take notes like everyone else but that it be digitally based

this would be the closest thing i could have to a portable wacom cintiq. a portable drawing or painting setup such as an ipad with pressure sensitivity support is the ultimate dream for artists who love drawing and creating art on location and absolutely love the digital medium. the jot touch would make a tablet a more useful product for digital artists who frequently use pressure sensitive drawing tablets (wacoms)– and it makes drawing with pressure sensitivity feel so much more natural and intuitive.

to put it more bluntly: i, as an artist, i won’t be as damn frustrated when i paint on an ipad. i’ll have to do less fiddling with painting controls and would spend more time creating pictures.
